Study of R-L-C parallel circuit


Objective: To measure the current across individual components, total circuit current & power
factor of R-L-C parallel circuit.

Theory:

The three are shown in fig. joined in parallel across an A.C. supply of rms voltage V.

Let
V=I*R
V = I.* XL, XL = 2ПfL
V = I.* XC, XC = 1/ 2Пfc

Its phase angle is Ø = tan -1 [ (XL – XC) / R]

Precautions:

1. All the meters should be taken in proper range.


2. Before connecting the meter in the circuits check there zero setting.
3. The current, voltage are noted when values settle to a steady value.
4. All joints should be tightly connected.
5. Voltage should not exceed 210V.
6. Supply is switched OFF after the experiment is over.

Circuit Diagram:

Procedure:

1. The circuit is made in the circuit diagram.


2. The variac should be kept in zero voltage position, the AC supply is switched ON.
3. The applied voltage is varied using the variac & corresponding value of voltage & current are
noted.
4. The readings of various voltages are tabulated till rated voltage (210V) of components is
reached.
5. The steps should be taken at least three (3) times.
